I know that he is not from the west or even midwest but what about Ricky Stenhouse Jr? I have watched him for a good while now, worked on his car before, and were just good buddies. In all the time at the track it always seemed like the fans were always wanting his autograph or just saying how exciting he is to watch. I guess i will have to start liking ARCA now that hes in that.

Ricky Wright is going to be a Great Star. He has less prior experience than most all West Coast Up and comers. Every week His corner speed, Lap times improved along with His agressiveness. One other is Alissa Geving 15 year Old from Petaluma.

In a perfect world we could take todays young openwheel guys down south and 4-5 of the drivers in the chase would be hard pressed to crack the top 25 spots against these kids.
Brady Bacon is 17 years old.

I think Ricky is great, really great but once he won in three USAC divisions and signed with Roush he surpassed the up and coming to above and gone.

You might want to keep tabs on Blake's little brother Braylon, as well. The younger Fitzpatrick completely dominated the restrictor micro class at Bakersfield Raceway Park in Linton, IN this season, then capped things off with a win in the stock micro class at the Pike County Nationals.
